There's a guy in our local campaign (which isn't HotAC, it's some weird RPG-like thing with way too many rules that nobody reads that I came up with) who bought one of those 2.0 X-Wing expansion packs on eBay. So I had to come up with rules to allow him to use the 2.0 actions, dial, and upgrades alongside his new flappy X-Wing. I guess it just pained him too much to have to use the old cards, dials, and bases.
I hadn't super noticed during 1.0, but all the weird little greebles and fiddly little mechanical details printed on all the cards and bases are super annoying and cluttery. I'll be aesthetically happy when I never have to look at a 1.0 card or base again.
I started playing with the S Foils from Saw's pack. It pretty much is the same as v2.
The dial is different, but you can always use the new dial if you want.
